I am a new member here but a long time collector from Sydney Australia, I have recently come across this Omega poppy on ebay, however I have noticed that it seems to have an error from Omega on the dial whereby the Seamaster 200 which should be there has the text of Seamaster 120.

Is this a known error as the rest of the watch to myself appears to be original.

IIRC these were from a batch of service dials.

Not much to recommend this example.

Is it just me, or does that caseback read 166.065, which is from a different reference. And the bezel is not appealing at all.

I think it does say 166.068, but still not a nice example.

Agreed, I think it is an 8, regardless the watch is a mess.
